Addressing the meeting, the DC said booth-level officers (BLOs) will conduct a door-to-door distribution of enumeration forms from June 25 to July 24. Each BLO will visit every household three times during the exercise and collect the signed enumeration forms from eligible voters.

He added that the draft publication of electoral rolls will take place on August 3, while claims and objections will be accepted from August 3 to September 2. The disposal of claims and objections will be completed by Electoral Registration Officers by September 28 and the final publication of electoral rolls will be issued on October 1.
